With the families of his victims sitting and sobbing in the front row of a Tulsa, Okla., courtroom yesterday, the young killer apologized to them and the rest of the city's black community for his role in the racially charged rampage known as the Good Friday Shootings."There are no words to express the sorrow and guilt of what I have done," Jake England told the courtroom, his voice slightly cracking, according to the Associated Press. "There is no excuse for my actions. I must live with this in my heart until the end of my days."
Just 21, England will spend the rest of those days in prison.
On Monday, England and Alvin Watts, 34, his accomplice in a shooting spree that left two black men and a black woman dead and two black men wounded on Good Friday 2012, were each sentenced to five consecutive life terms.
